Non Vascularised Fibula Strut Graft Augmentation for Fixation of Proximal Humerus 3-Part Fracture using PHILOS Plate and CC Screws in a Young Male [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2021
Proximal humerus fracture accounts for 4-5% of all fractures. Locking Compression Plate (LCP) Proximal Humerus Internal Locking System (PHILOS) fixation is currently the most widely used method for the management of unstable proximal humerus fractures.

Hounsfield units predicts the occurrence but not the patterns of proximal humerus fracture in the elderly patients

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2023
Background Increased incidence of fragility fractures of the proximal humerus has been reported. Proximal humerus Hounsfield unit (HU) measurements based on computed tomography (CT) scans of the shoulder can be used to evaluate bone mineral density (BMD).
